How does sleeping pills react or are bad to the body​
spayn [35]

Hi there.

Sleeping pills can be affective, one common side-affects are; "slower breathing" -- slower breathing is a common factor, as a side affect. Another would be "depressed breathing".

These happen for many reasons, forcing your body to sleep isn't on the "healthy" side of your body.

Sometimes, people do get addicted to sleeping pills; and take them every night and can lead to small or major health issues.

An unwanted pill that goes into your body every night will cause unwanted side affects. That can be very harmful!
